>> this is absolutely an economic economy. the president and congress -- the president, it seems clear. he wants to act on climate change. there will be a lot of cost benefit analysis that has to be made over the economy. one thing we may see is the president moving forward on epa regulations on coal plants signaling that as this is flexing executive authority and taking action on climate change, but we may see a tradeoff. moving on that and approving the keystone pipeline as well. we will see the president trying really hard to weigh in and taking action on climate change, but trying not to harm the economy in the short-term. >> coral davenport in d.c. thanks. >>> he pulled the trigger on osama bin laden. now two years later, one of the most war decorated hero is facing a future without much help from the military. clump cre . big green brush, curved to crush. 200% more volume. zero clumps. new clump crusher from easy, breezy, beautiful covergirl. i just served my mother-in-law your chicken noodle soup but she loved it so muc

. >> but the tea party issues on the economy and their, you know, deep concern about the $16 trillion ballooning deficit, are those concerns legit? >> concerns about the deficit are legitimate. the important thing to understand is that the republican party as a whole doesn't give a rat's patootie about the deficit. they can say they do all day, but if you are not for what the president calls a balanced approach, which all the experts say is the only way you will really address the deficit, a combination of steep budget cuts in certain areas and some tax increases in other areas, you cannot get from here to there in deficit reduction. so anybody who says that just budget cuts, no tax increases is not serious about reducing the deficit. and republicans have been a tax cut party, not a deficit reduction party for the last 25 years. >> when it comes to things have you in your house, one thing i love is this gathering of campaign buttons. >> yeah. >> where did that come from? >> that collection is actually my father's. >> adeli stevenson. i see a lot of that. >> they got involved with adla

it's hanging over the economy. and you say like the airplane we are flying is going down and we're taking a break to watch the in-flight movie. so what are you talking about? is this sort of a lack of urgency from both sides? because there's no incentive for democrats nor republicans to cut a deal here? >> i am not saying that at all, alex. i'm saying that the house leadership on the republican side, which controls the schedule, controls the calendar, they have every power to bring us back to d.c., to go back to our desks on the floor of the house and work out the problem. with ten days to go before the ridiculous sequester takes place, we don't get called back to washington. instead, we have what we call a district work week scheduled. in other words, people are working on things other than averting this sequester. i think it's ridiculous. i think that even to see the republican house leadership working hardest on blaming president obama for the sequester is foolish. what we have is speaker boehner making posters
